This definition is true for the literature of the Greeks; but the word, as
used by NT writers, has been influenced by the LXX. Thus, the common
rendering of "omnipotent" is acceptable because this rightly reflects the
LXX use of the word. After all, no one is more "potent" than the ruler!

True- again- only if one is accepting the word in its greek milieu- but
again, the writers of the NT were semites using a language filtered through
the LXX.
(except Luke, who however is still semitically minded).
